Black Blood

I'm Not Asking

Suddenly the sound of a baby cry echoed through the quiet house immediatly waking me and Kris from our short slumber. I started to get up but Kris stopped me by kissing my forehead. "I'll get them." I smiled at him before he cralwed out of bed then left the room,going to attend to the triplets. What feels like a few minutes later,the next thing I knew is that you are waking up the the sunlight beaming into my eyes. "Will you just shut up?" Echoed through the house making you jump up and run down stairs to see kris and Kai going at it. "Knock it off!" I scolded the two casuing them to shut up immediatly. "What is it this time?" I didn't get to finish my question before Kai sarted barking at me. "Your damn kids kept us up last night which caused us to miss our flight to our honeymoon!" "Shut the hell up. It's not their fault-" I couldn't take it anymore. "Shut up! Now!!" 

I began but sighed heavily before I continued. "I'm more tired and more sore than I will ever be in my whole life and I will not spend my resting time listening to you two bitch,moan and groan. I am packing mine and the triplets stuff and I'm going to mom's. You can either stay here or go with me,at this point. I don't care." I clearly told him before going upstairs to pack mine and the triplets stuff. Suddenly,a giant hand stopped me from putting the last bit of MayLin's clothes in her bag. "You weren't kidding.." "No. I wasn't. I am fed up with you to bickering none stop,for god's sake. He's your brother-in-law. Show some respect." He removed his hand then continued to stand aside watching me walk back and fowarth packing up clothes and stuff of the triplets. I suddenly stopped and put my hand on my back then groaned in pain. "Are you going or not?" 

He sighs before walking ovwer to the tiny dresser and grabbing the tiny clothes then walks back over and puts them in the duffle bag. "Yeah,I think it will be good to get away from here for awhile." I frowned softly only seeing enthusiasm written all over his face. I looked down ad procceded to cross my arms and he continued to pack the rest of the clothes for me. "Maybe me and the triplets should just go.." I mentioned quietly seeing him stop in his tracks from the corner of my eyes. "What?" He asked deeply and seriously. "I just..think it will be best if we have a break for a little bit."  "No,you just had triplets, and we already spent three years away from each other. I'm not spending anymore away from you or our kids." I sighed softly before felt a sigle tear leave the corner of my eye. "Yifan,I'm not asking for a break. I'm taking one." Kris scoffed before leavin g the room,slamming the door behind him which startled me.  

Waking up on the morning of my flight, Kris was already up and dressed and had the triplets read to go. "Hurry up,you don't want to miss your flight." I listened to the sarcasm roll off of his tongue. i sighed before getting up and slipping something comfortable on. After I got dressed,Kris took two of the triplets while I took Tai Yang. Kris quietly strapped their carseats into the SUV while I finished strapping up Tai Yang. Without a word,Kris went back inside and grabbed all of the bags,putting them into the back of the SUV. As I sat in the fron seat staring down at my feet,he fiinally climbed in and started his Cadillac Escalade. After a long silence,Kris finally worked up the guts to say something. "Try and get some rest on the flight,and promise to call me as soon as you land." "I promise." He half assed a smiled still showing how sad he was which made me feel quilty. "I'm sorry.." I began as he started to drive down the long driveway. "I just feel like this is the best thing..you can keep one of the triplets here with you if you need too.." No answer. Nothing. I sighed as we contiued to drive to the airport. "I'll keep MayLin,if thats okay.." I smiled slightly and nodded. "That's fine with me."
